Song lyrics

[Verse 1:]
The postman delivered
A "past due" bill notice,
The alarm clock rang two hours late,
The garbage man left all the trash
On the sidewalk,
And the hinges fell off of the gate,
And this morning at breakfast
I spilled all the coffee,
And I opened the door on my knees.

[Chorus:]
But the last thing I needed,
The first thing this morning
Was to have you walk out on me.

[Verse 2:]
Last night you came home late,
And I knew you'd been drinking
By that old mellow look on your face.
I thought, "It don't matter
Because it's the holiday season."
And you fill such a big empty space
But then I laid down beside you,
And I wanted your loving,
Because your love makes my life complete.

[Chorus:]
But the last thing I needed,
The first thing this morning
Was to have you walk out on me.

[Verse 3:]
So excuse me for looking
Like my world just ended,
And excuse me for looking
Like I just lost my best friend,
And excuse me for loving
And being forgiving,
So just go on if you want to be free.

[Chorus:]
But the last thing I needed,
The first thing this morning
Was to have you walk out on me.
